Galleria Sepultura

English/35mins/2003
Producer: Switchblade and Silverspoon

Subject Focus: The Tribal Spirit and its imminent death at the hands of society.

Summary: The indigenous people, depicted here, are from the forests of Kerala, the hills of Nagaland, Myanmar and the river islands of Assam. Though seemingly diverse, they share the fate of enforced disassociation from their traditional legacy of water and spirit. In doing so, our larger society is shown to metaphorically assume the role of a modern cannibal, the worst hunter, one that feeds upon it’s own.
